Benefits of technology

In view of the above, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a method and a device for pairing user terminals in the Multiuser-Multiple input Multiple output, which can more effectively and more accurately pair users, thereby improving performances of the MU-MIMO.
Under the precondition of considering the path loss condition of the user terminals, with the method and the device for pairing user terminals in the MU-MIMO provided by the present invention, the user terminals are paired in combination with the path condition of the user terminals, which relieves the influences of interference on the pairing result, thereby more effectively and more accurately pairing users and thus improves the performances of the MU-MIMO.

Problems solved by technology

Although such technologies can be used to improve system performance and thus effectively improve peak data rate, average cell throughput and cell-edge user throughput, the technologies usually result in loss of average sector throughput or increased complexity of receivers.
However, as network topology is becoming more and more complex, interference environment undergone by the user terminals is also increasingly complex, and especially in the wireless networks of the LTE of the 3GPP.
Such interference increasingly impacts on the environment of pairing users, thereby seriously affecting the performance of the MU-MIMO.

Abstract

A method for pairing user terminals in the MU-MIMO system comprises: a base station sets pairing parameters; the base station receives report information of a user terminal, and sets parameter identifiers according to the set pairing parameters and the report information; and after determining that the user terminal which reported the report information is a user terminal to be paired, the base station determines a user terminal paired with the user terminal to be paired according to the set parameter identifiers. A device for pairing user terminals in the MU-MIMO system comprises a parameter setting unit, a parameter identifier setting unit and a pairing performing unit. Under the precondition of considering the path loss condition of the user terminals, the present invention combines with the path condition of the user terminals to pair the user terminals, which can relieve the influences of the interference on the pairing result to a certain extent, and improve the performance of the MU-MIMO system.
